Joyful Ruins

Discovering joy in the hard places

Dear Younger me, Pouch of Stars

Dear younger me,

Do you understand the impact you make with small gestures of kindness?

From holding the door open to paying a compliment, these are what build people up. These, in a sense, add up. It’s like carrying around a pouch of stars and handing them to people as you go about your day, so when darkness comes, they’re all still shining.

I see the world through stories and insights. I have always been a sensitive soul, especially towards nature, people, art, and faith. I spend a lot of time reflecting and finding treasures wherever I can. The two values I live by are beauty and celebration. I hope my blog communicates those two things, seeing beauty where beauty is not often seen and celebrating every aspect of life, the hard and the easy.
